Hi Reddit! I'm Dr. Daniel Barrett, a plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills. I'm board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, did my six-year plastic and reconstructive residency at USC/Keck, and have been practicing since 2008. A big part of my week is breast augmentation, breast lifts, tummy tucks, and "mommy makeovers" (usually some combination of those plus liposuction after pregnancy). I've also done research on reducing capsular contracture around implants. I did an AMA here back in 2020, and I'm back with a lot more cases behind me.
I see a lot of people arrive at consults after weeks of reading Reddit threads, so I wanted to come here directly. Ask me about:
Ground rules: I can't give individual medical advice or evaluate your photos here; that requires an in-person exam. I won't discuss any specific patient. Nothing here is a substitute for a consultation with a qualified surgeon.
I'm posting a day early so you can start asking. My team is helping me post, but every answer is mine. I'll be answering Thursday, Oct 22, 9 to 11 AM PT (12 to 2 PM ET).
